    I had things working just fine with mandriva 2007.1 and the palm
    tungsten e.
    
    upgraded to mdk 2008.0 and now have a Palm T|X.  I believe my problem is
    in the /etc/udev/rules.d/pilot.rules file,  my pilot.rules reads as
    follows:
    
    BUS!="usb", SYSFS{product}!="Palm Handheld", KERNEL!="ttyUSB0", SYMLINK
    +="pilot"
    
    when I try to sync with jpilot (first the sync buttom on the pilot than
    hit sync in jpilot)  I get the following
    
    ****************************************
     Syncing on device /dev/pilot
     Press the HotSync button now
    ****************************************
    
    and nothing happens.
    
    so any ideas in what I'm doing wrong?
    
    
    
    This is my little cheat sheet, I use in the past.
    
    edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local and add
    
    modprobe usbserial
    modprobe visor
    
    edit /etc/modprobe.conf and add the line
    
    options visor vendor=0x0830 product=0x061
    
    get vendor and product from # lsusb
    
    pilot.rules
    
    BUS!="usb", SYSFS{product}!="Palm Handheld", KERNEL!="ttyUSB0", SYMLINK
    +="pilot"
    
    jpilot setting /dev/pilot
